Pololu Zumo Reflectance Sensor Array Armor

thingiverse

After wrestling my Pololu Zumo robots for quite some time, one of them suffered a devastating blow when it crashed into the front of another robot, knocking off a surface mount capacitor that landed with a thud on top of the plow. I finally decided to arm my robots with basic protection so I created an Arduino Uno plate to shield the top and designed this skid plate to safeguard the Reflectance Sensor Array. There are no clips holding it in place, but if your print is perfectly executed, it should fit snugly enough to stay on its own. Keep in mind that the cut of the PCB and the wiggle room of the soldered components and headers will vary slightly so you may need to modify the SCAD file or file your print carefully.
